Random news

The preprint on subcritical reactors I had written about two months ago has finally appeared on arxiv. Apparently it was “on hold” for that long because the primary category (applied physics) was not the right one, and the moderators thought “instrumentation and detectors” was better. Honestly, I am not sure they are right, given how theoretical the paper is, but I am just glad the paper appeared (I would have just preferred it to be faster).

I also have one article written with Vincent Vennin and one interview by Philippe Pajot in the latest edition of La Recherche. Both are, of course, in French. This edition, with a new format, features many interesting articles, in particular an interview of the president of the Max Planck Society.
